A fancy catalog gives the impression of income, that the business is already established and doing well. So, for those companies that are doing well, it may be a great idea to invest in some stationery, business cards, pamphlets and catalogs (check out zooprinting.com for wholesale catalog printing for an idea of what I am talking about). This is sure to enhance your business image and also add another feeling of professionalis in what you do.

Keep literature/write ups short and sweet. Use positive and action words instead of flowery ones. Either stick to classy and professional... or go really over the top crazy (because middle ground will just confuse prospective clients). Use colors in muted tones. And of course, hire professionals.

Monster iSport Immersion In-Ear
Headphones with ControlTalk - Black is on sale at Amazon right now. I am trying not to regret having bought it during their Black Friday sale (for $67.49, because it's now only $60).

I am posting about the headphones here though because hubby is just really so happy with it. He appreciates the waterproof part but LOVES the sound quality of the headphones. Therefore, I am recommending it to those whose loved ones use their iPhones to exercise.

Times are hard, they say, but because of so many factors... it's also really easy for middle-income people to afford a few luxuries. Therein lies the dilemma, what to give to people who can afford things?

Instead of shopping for bundle cigars and fancy ceramics or cool shades, why not just give them spa and wellness gift certificates? I'm pretty sure most have been curious about ventosa, or acupuncture, and almost everyone likes to get a massage. Introduce foreigner friends to tradtional hilot massage (and not the cloppety-clop of a Swedish one). Buy a slot in an Alexander technique workshop for people complaining of aches and pains, and a slot in a Buteyko workshop for asthmatics.

It will be new and interesting, and it will show that you really care about their health.

Hubby had to go to Tayabas, Quezon and he discovered Rodillas Restaurant, which turned out to be famous for their yema cakes.

The cake itself is light, but I found the cheese on the yema icing slightly saltier than what I'd like. Either they're heavy-handed with the cheese, or they just use saltier cheese. Although this was delicious and something I'd make sure to get if ever we're in Tayabas... I honestly prefer the yema cake I buy from the Bakers Dozen thingie at Power Plant Mall (because that yema cake isn't too sweet nor salty, just right).

The best part of this cake though is this small one only costs P120 :) The one at Power Plant Mall costs over P200, at least

But I am a fan of their yema icing with pili sweets (because it's soooo soft and gooey). I can eat it the whole day! Haha

So, if you're heading deep South and passing by Tayabas, make a stop at Rodillas for their wonderfully sinful yema cake.
